save m3u files: use relative paths

when I save an m3u file the filename is written as an absolute path. I want it a relative path.

personal rationale: I keep every album in a single folder and use the top file "00 beatles - abbey road.m3u" to play the album.

Of course, vlc has to find out, in a smart way, what should be the root of the relative path. So my suggestion is to give the options: ( ) absolute paths only ( ) relaative to m3u target folder [where the m3u is saved to]

plus (maybe these make sense) ( ) relative to .... [fixed folder, eg "my music"] ( ) common base folder [scan all the files to find the longest common pathname]

but at least, pleeeze allow relative folders again! (winamp did that from the beginning on!)
